Yup. Same here.
One day we were out at dinner with neighbors. The place had a big giant sand pit that the kids played in while the parents hung out on the deck.
My daughter who was 7-8 at the time came over to complain about some older boys who were knocking down the sand castles she and some other kids were building.
Told her if he does it again she should tell him to stop.
A bit later one of the neighbors goes Uh oh and points towards the kids.
Bully and his buds were making their way to my daughters group. Head bully says something to my daughter and she stands up and gives him a talking to.
The boy, who has a couple of inches and more than a couple of pounds on my daughter reaches out to shove her. She grabs his arms, pulls him off balance and throws him to the ground. Then she does an awesome WWF knee drop into his chest. She hops back up, bully rolls over to try and crawl away while she is kicking him in the ass.
I call her over and she says "Am I in trouble daddy" No baby, just some advice, 1 or 2 kicks would have been enough, go play.
